IPhoto won't sync with new iPad mini

I purchased a new iPad mini. When I sync it with my desktop, iPhoto does not sync, when I press photo tab I just see s whirling beach ball and no albums to select to sync on iPad

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

Videos in iPhoto won't sync to phone.

When i take a video with my iPhone 3gs and upload it to iphoto, it won't show up in my phone when i sync it through iTunes even though the check box to include videos is selected. Help! this is very frustrating. I am using iTunes 9, iPhoto 5.0.4 running on a powerbook G4 and i have an iPhone 3gs. I've tried restoring my phone, deleting the photos from my phone and re-syncing, no luck. Am i doing something wrong? is there a setting i'm not enabling?

All videos are synced from itunes to the ipod app. Videos you take with your phone are imported to iphoto, from there you import into itunes, convert to iphone/ipod version and sync back to your phone. Or, you could just leave them in your camera roll.

ITunes and iPhoto won't sync or upload photos from my iPod

I have photos in my 1st generation iPod that I would like to remove and place on my computer.
When I hook up the iPod to my mini mac and open iPhoto, I am unable to import the images into the library. It won't allow me to choose the Photos Database file or the two .ithmbs files in the Photos folder.
When I tried to sync the iPod, it tells me that the existing images on my computer will override and delete the existing photos in the iPod.
How can I convert the .ithmb files to .jpg and remove them from the iPod?
All the forum info and converters I find online are for Windows and I don't see anyone having this issue on a Mac.
Any advice would be helpful since I need to return this iPod to Apple soon due to the 1st gen iPod Nano battery recall.
Thanks,
Blue

>All the forum info and converters I find online are for Windows and I don't see anyone having this issue on a Mac.
If all existing converters are for Windows why don't you copy your ITHMB files to Windows and use the converters?

Movies in iPhoto won't sync

Over the years I have imported into iPhoto quite a few video clips shot on a variety of cameras and phones. Once in a while I'd load one that wasn't properly formatted to play on my iPhone 4 or 1st gen iPad, but a quick trip thru Handbrake solved most of those issues. Suddenly last night one set of clips taken during a visit to Park City Utah began to misbehave and actually blocked 136 new photos after them in the library from being synced to/from my iPad.
I've unchecked that particular event in the photo section of my iPhone in iTunes, but now two more clips have refused to sync, although they didn't block anything after them in the library. I'm wondering if anyone else has had this or a similar problem. I just ported over to Lion (profile info is obsolete) and ICloud this past week, but didn't have any syncing problems until several days later. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Ideas? . . . . Anyone?

IPhoto won't sync...correctly?! Any thoughts?

I selected three folders today from my iPhoto library which I wanted to sync with my iPhone. However, after the sync. noticed that only one of the folders brought the pictures within it over to the phone. I then created another folder to test, transferred five pictures into it, but only one showed up during the sync. As a matter of fact, of my twenty folders in my iPhoto...all with pictures....only three of the folders acknowledge having any photos in them within the iTunes library. Any suggestions...because that is just plain weird??!!

IPhoto Won't Sync With iPhone 4

Hi
I'm rebuilding my iTunes after it had been deleted. I've connected my iPhone 4, then select my iPhone 4 from the left hand side on iTunes. Under Photos I've selected to Sync Photos from iPhoto. Only one photo gets sync'd, a wallpaper I'd saved the other day. It wont sync all the other photos in iPhoto. Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks
Baz

I am having the same problem. I have had my iPhone 4 since June, and had no problem syncing all my iPhoto pictures before. I noticed this past weekend, when I went to show someone a photo, that the only pictures on my iPhone were ones I had taken with the iPhone. When I went back to sync, all the settings were correct (and in fact, the sync too a long time as iTunes told me it was importing all 3800 of my photos). But they still are not viewable on the iPhone. Interestingly, via iTunes it is reported that I have 7 GB of photos on my phone - but cannot find them.

Just updated iPhone 5 to iOS 7.1.2, now it won't sync with iphoto 9.4.3

Just updated iPhone 5 to iOS 7.1.2 (from some version of iOS 6), now it won't sync with iPhoto 9.4.3 on my MacBook pro (running OS 10.8.5). I plug it in and iPhoto recognizes the iPhone but only displays a 'Loading..." message next to the 'New Photos' page.
Tried it also on my older Mac Pro running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and iPhoto 9.2.3 and same problem.
Any ideas? Already tried rebooting both devices.

I have same problem but with iPhoto 9.5.1
Photos don't get to the iPhone.

IPhoto album won't sync?

I have an iPhoto album that won't sync to my iPad2 running iOS5. My Mac is OS 10.6.8 and iPhoto is v. 8.1.2. This particular album never had an issue syncing before. I just noticed it when switching from an older iPad. I did a restore from backup of old iPad to new iPad2, not sure if that is the issue. I also tried setting up this iPad as new and running the sync, but still have issues with this one album. It will sync without error, but the album does not appear on the iPad.Other albums sync without an issue. Just noticed than iTunes shows the album as having 0 photos, while iPhoto shows it as having 62 photos. Any ideas?

The file in the Library that governs sharing is called th AlbumData.xml file in 09.
Quit iPhoto.
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for the AlbumData.xml file
Drag it to the desktop. Restart iPhoto. That will force it to regenerate the file.
Restart iTunes too and try again

Try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync and see if they then copy over correctly - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

IPhone won't sync with iPhoto after Mavericks update

I updated to Mavericks this week and also the latest version of iPhoto. I'm having problems getting iPhoto to sync with the phone. It recognizes the phone but won't load up the images on it. And it won't sync photos from my iPhoto library to the phone.
But then, sometimes it works, it recognizes the iPhoto library and updates everything correctly to the phone. Weird! I'm not sure what it is I do that gets the phone and iPhoto to work together. I've tried restarting the phone. That doesn't seem to be it.
Music and podcasts sync fine.
I have to say, I do have a lot of photos in iPhoto, close to 50,000. Could that be the problem?
Thanks for your help!

Here's something I discovered, while struggling with the same syncing issue:
iPhoto was not recognizing that my iPhone was plugged in.
Deleting photos not taken with the iPhone would solve the problem, as others have reported.
Then, this happened:
I plugged in the iPhone to import pictures, and it would not appear in iPhoto, due to the presence of "other" photos on the camera roll (pictures not taken with the phone, but saved there from messages and email received on the iPhone).
With the iPhone still plugged into my computer, and iTunes and iPhoto running, I opened GraphicConverter 5.9 to just check whether or not it recognized the iPhone. GraphicConverter asked if I wanted to import all or some of the pictures from my connected iPhone, and I said no. Now things get interesting: I then happened to look again at iPhoto, and THERE WAS MY IPHONE.
I then proceeded to import ALL of the photos from the iPhone with no problems!!
This has worked twice for me. I can't explain it, but I wanted to post this in the hope that someone else could benefit from it.

I added memory to my MacBook Pro (now 4gb) and upgraded to Lion. Now my iphone 4 won't sync-gets stuck at stage 7 of 8 on importing photos. My iphoto is'09 version 8.1.2

I recently added memory to my MacBook Pro so I could upgrade to Lion and use the cloud for my contact list. It's been a bit of a mess, since I use Entourage as my email program. The REAL problem I'm having now is that my iPhone 4 now won't sync. iTunes "quits unexpectedly" at stage 7 (of 8) in the syncing process, where it says it's importing photos. My iPhoto is '09, version 8.1.2 Is this not compatible with Lion?

I have the same problem. I'm suspecting a corrupt photo, but the logs don't give me a clue. Or maybe this version of iTunes needs some further tuning.

New iPad 2 won't sync iPhotos without deleting existing photos

I just got the iPad 2 and want to sync my photos from my Mac. It won't sync all of them at once (pop up window says it can't sync) so I tried a few albums at a time, which works but deletes the previous photos with new ones. It shouldn't be this hard, right? Help please!

To add a new album without erasing other existing ones, just leave the current ones checked in iTunes before syncing. You can add photos from one (or more) iPhoto or Aperture events/albums at a time, but DON'T unselect the events you want to keep in iTunes or any unselected album will be deleted.
There shouldn't be a restriction on the number of photos to be synced at a time. I have loaded 17,000 photos with iTunes from my iPhoto database on my iPad and 24,000 photos from my Aperture database (via iTunes) onto my iPad 2 without a problem.

IPhone 3Gs won't sync/upload to iPhoto

I upgraded from the original iPhone to the 3Gs and now iPhoto won't import photos from it. It still works with the original iPhone. When I plug in the 3Gs, iTunes comes up but not iPhoto. If I go to iPhoto to do it manually, it can't find the 3Gs. Shutting down the compute, turning off the iPhone and switching the usb port don't wok. everyone's advice to click on the mythical "synch to iPhoto" button won't work because that button doesn't seem to be available on my computer.
PLEASE help me! I have almost 30 photos I would like to get off my iPhone!
thank you

On windows you can upload when the phone is connected for sync by using the autoplay window that pops up and select "import photos and videos", if you can't get the upload in a similar way on your Macbook dust off your old windows machine then transfer. Make sure you have iTunes on the PC. I used Windows Live Photo Gallery but you probably can use any windows viewer then save.
If that isn't available I suggest you email to self or upload video to Youtube, Long way round but at leaset can use the photos until a fix is deemed necessary by the apple Gods.
